November was a good month. Gave D.O.D. a rest and went with Tinlicker, Argy, Goom Gum, and some old-school Pete Tong / Jules Buckley among others. That must've been it. :becky:

Took one trade in Globex that was 3x my daily profit (multiple Apex accts), so may leave well alone today depending on how it develops. Generally, gap-up breakouts on the open are my least favorite...
